I called UPS a little while ago. Mine is scheduled to leave Korea tomorrow morning. Cross fingers! They confirmed that once the devices arrive in the US they usually move pretty fast. Now, do I actually go back to work or do I start looking for potential cargo planes leaving out of there? ?

MBP 256/16 ordered 5 hours after the keynote, currently in Memphis via Fedex. Delivery is scheduled for next Monday but I'm hoping they can get it to Indiana by tomorrow evening!

My Mini left Hong Kong today, took a short break in Dubai and is now on it's way to Europe. Still scheduled for tomorrow delivery in NL so hopefully there won't be any delays.

My shipment UPS has just gone to "Rescheduled Delivery" :-O.

Last update was Hong Kong. Was due this Friday.

I’m in the same boat, waiting on a 16gb/1tb Mac mini, stuck in Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong. Where is yours stuck?

Mine was also supposed to arrive on Friday.
Any update on either of your shipments? Or still stuck in the same position like mine?

I have a Macbook Air 8core/8GPU 16GB, 2 TB one I ordered on 11/11 which initially showed a delivery date of 11/29-12/3 is now showing that it will be delivered on Monday, 11/23. Really excited. Fedex is still showing in China right now.
to get you even more hyped....mine arrived in NY the day after it left China! I think I sat in China for ~3 days. Fedex.

Wow, Tennesse to Japan in 29 minutes? That's impressive. ?
Mine showed it went to Memphis then back Japan, then back to Memphis within a few hours ?. Must be the timezone difference and their timestamps not adjusting...all showing local time.

Mine is still hanging out, drunk, in hong Kong, with your mini.

Ours are probably sitting on the same pallet, having missed the plane, I am refreshing just about every hour...I am not planning on it arriving until next week at this point. I’m not concerned that it was lost or anything, like I said, it’s probably a sizable pallet of them that won’t be separated until it meets the states. My timeline and locations match yours precisely, down to the minute.

Mine is bound for Maryland, USA.

Finally got mine. Ordered within one hour of the announcement.

Originally, Apple said Nov 24 - 27. Then when it was shipped via UPS, the estimated delivery date was shifted to Nov 23 on Apple's site, but UPS said Nov 19.

Looks like UPS gets the last laugh.

Silver Pro 16GB 1TB in case anyone wonders.

Yep, you're probably right. Mine is bound for Los Angeles, USA

I'd love to hope that it will have time to get to Louisville, then over to Mount Hope (Canada) and finally over to Montreal for a delivery tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure that I'll have to wait until the weekend is over for a Monday delivery. MBA 8-core GPU with 16GB here :)

No movement! CEton Probably had the correct answer - all on the same pallet.

Watching the shipment is the part I really despise about ordering in advance from Apple, especially when it's delayed!! :D

Actually...

Has anyone used Paypal as their payment method when buying the Macbook?
I've tried, but it does not accept bank account as payment method last time I tried, you still need to add a card to pay with PayPal, and that looks kind of meaningless to me as I can use the card directly.

For those who have already had theirs orders shipped or delivered, how long did it take between "Preparing To Ship" and "Shipped" for you guys?

I ordered a non-silicon Mac about 5 days ago, but there aren't any shipping threads for that for obvious reasons. Hopefully I'm welcome here because I like to track shipments with everyone haha.

I ordered:
16-inch MacBook Pro 2.3GHz Core i9 Turbo up to 4.8GHz, AMD Radeon Pro 5500M w/ 8GB GDDR6, 1TB SSD 16GB RAM
(only upgrade is the graphics card, but it is upgraded so that slows my delivery)
Order Date: November 14th
Est. Delivery Date: Dec 9th - 16th.

Hoping to see that ship a little sooner though, we'll see.
